Sisoko is god awful, why teams are willing to pay £12 million for him is beyond me.

Saviloa would be a nice addition to the United team, although he's a bit short so neither him or Rooney would win much in the air.

[FAHQALL]

I can see why Liverpool want to buy Eto'o but I think they are offering to mutch for him.
35 Million is too mutch.

[j20]

Not really. Eto'o is perhaps the best forward in the world, he's exactly the type of player Liverpool need as all their other strikers are really average at best.
